First of all, thank you for reading this. I am a single guardian of two and we currently need to buy more medicine for their asthma treatments now that it’s getting warmer and their outside activities start but I don’t have all the money right now.

Cashapp- $naomi199x or Venmo- @dayreece

I was thinking maybe 200 dollars? Just enough to give and help.

COMMISSIONS OPEN !

Reblogs appreciated!!

Hi everyone! I’m opening commissions for the very first time, as I could really use the funds. On the way to visit my mother in the hospital 4 hours away from home, my car broke down, and I was told that I would need to pay $437 USD in order to replace all my fluids, change the oil, and order new parts for the ones that broke. I don’t make that much money as is, so I don’t have anything left after having to buy a bus ticket to get here.

If you’re interested, please DM me! If you’d like to just donate, my ca/shapp is $dessmkl and my pa/ypal is paypal.com/paypalme/dessmk

Please note that I currently do not have my iPad with me, as I had only brought essentials. I can still sketch something pretty coherent out for you on my phone, but it may take a few more days for me to begin actual work on your request, depending on when I’ll be able to get home.

ADDITIONAL INFO:

Sketch style shading is demonstrated in the infographic

Medium detail features a more cartoon-ish style, rather than the stylised realism of high detail

If you have a sketch of your own (it can be stick figures and random shapes!), please send it to me, as it’ll give me a clearer idea of what you may want. I will send a cleaner re-sketch & we’ll go from there!

10 slots are currently open, but that may change depending on availability and speed of commission completion

If there are additional items you want to add that I find may take more labour than the baseline price, I may charge a small fee (may vary)

It is okay to use my work as your icon as long as you pay in full beforehand and credit me in your bio! If you want me to draw you, your OC, or your favourite character/person in one of my styles then I absolutely can!

You may DM me with no strings attached! If you want to discuss an idea but then feel I may not be the artist for you, no worries!

It’s Indigenous peoples day so give to an indigenous person doing some work on our world!

I’m not making any grandiose claims about the “greatness” or the “best-ness” of any of these records. But they’re the records I kept coming back to, throughout the year — the ones that refused to fall off the queue, that insisted that I listen, closely and attentively.  

The list also gravitates toward the slow and really, really heavy. This year, if a record’s sounds weren’t loud and pissed off or bummed out, it didn’t have much chance of holding my attention. Heavy, pissed and bummed were my affective baselines, as U.S. politics and culture spiraled around an ethical nadir. Music has never been an escape for me. It’s life’s soundtrack. And life has a dire, desperate feel these days. The records respond accordingly.  

Agrimonia’s Awaken is the record I played most often this year, and I played those by YOB and Thou almost as frequently. The others are in no particular order, but I spent a lot of time with all of them.

OKAY so longers story, I am driving my dad & his gf to New Jersey, because that’s the only place anyone has offered them a place to sleep, which is a long way from Panama City beach FL. where they are right now.  (At my uncles & trust me it is FAR from ideal) 

FEMA has screwed him over despite him doing everything right and they have way too much stuff to take a greyhound or a plane. This is not what any of us want to do, but the homeless shelters nearby are for people with substance abuse issues and there are none where both him & his GF can stay. 

I love my dad more than anyone else in my family, and before and after my coming out as transgender he’s given me more support than anyone else in my family. I hate the idea of him being further away from me, but this is the only thing I can do for him right now.
